$A$ drum of radius $R$ and mass $M$ rolls down without slipping along an inclined plane of angle $\theta$. The frictional force:

  • A
    Decreases the rotational and translational motion
  • B
    Dissipates energy as heat
  • C
    Decreases the rotational motion
  • D
    Converts translational energy to rotational energy

$A$ rolling wheel of $12 \, kg$ is on an inclined plane at position $P$ and connected to a mass of $3 \, kg$ through a string of fixed length and a pulley as shown in the figure. Consider $PR$ as a friction-free surface. The velocity of the centre of mass of the wheel when it reaches the bottom $Q$ of the inclined plane $PQ$ will be $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{xgh} \, m/s$. The value of $x$ is.............
